We’re always down for the revival of an OG, and even more down when it’s an archival trail silhouette. Utilising the Nike ACG Air Exploraid as the latest muse for an update, the Swoosh have picked not only a solid sneaker, but one that was significantly praised during its release for exceptional performance technology. Of course, we wouldn’t expect anything less from the ACG sub-label, providing unparalleled outdoor-coded sneakers since ‘88. 2023 has seen trail-aficionados treated to bangers like the Torre Mid and Mountain Fly Low GORE-TEX, so we’re not surprised that Nike isn’t planning on slowing momentum anytime soon. Due to have a re-release early next year, let’s take a closer look at the kicks at hand!
Debuting in a stunning sage hue during the SNKRS 2024 Showcase, the revived Air Exploraid maintains the same construction as the original predecessor – and we’re not mad about it. As the saying goes, if it’s not broken, don’t fix it! The sneaker adopts a deep-ridged outsole and neoprene bootie for the ultimate functional/comfort duo, accentuated by a subtle tonal contrast. In a more recently teased second and third iteration, Nike are delivering two sleek ‘Ash Green’ and ‘Light Orewood Brown’ colourways. ACG branding proudly adorns the heel and layered upper, reminding us of who we have to thank for this iconic resurrection.
The Nike ACG Air Exploraid is anticipated to arrive in FEBRUARY 2024 although this hasn’t yet been confirmed by the Oregon-based brand. Both colourways will be stocked on NIKE & SELECTED RETAILERS, CLICK HERE FOR STOCKISTS.
